Elli Korpela flees Finland after the death of her father, sure that her neighbor had him killed so he could take her home and her. She comes to Texas as a Mail Order Bride. Nathan White decides he needs someone to take care of his 4 year old niece who he has raised since she was a baby. When Elli is attacked, did her past find her or is it unrest at the quarry that Nathan manages?

"Bluebonnet Bride" is a novella. It is about 60 pages long. I thought that the story didn't feel rushed or that the story was lacking. I didn't figure out what was going on with the attack until the characters did, so I liked that.

When I was looking for "Bluebonnet Bride" online so I could link to it, I was surprised to see that Colleen Coble had a book called "Butterfly Palace", which is the story of some of the characters mentioned in "Bluebonnet Bride"! I also didn't realize that I had read a novella by Colleen Coble. She wrote the first part of "Secretly Smitten" which I previously reviewed.

I would recommend this story to those who like a good clean mystery romance that doesn't take a long time to read.
